Re: Small Hobbyist Wood Router
I would think that a drill press is too slow for small diameter cutters. Cutting fibrous materials either needs a very sharp edge such as a scythe or a high speed to break the fibre which is effectively static due to its inertia, like a strimmer.
Rotor speed and feed rate need to be adjusted to give a good cut without burning.
The posts by David G4EBT make me admire his superb work but makes me ashamed of my own bodging.
